A Wedding in Negril

What is the expectation of the all inclusive? For example, what are the expected inclusions, meal expectations, watersports/activities expectations, and modern vs. out of date decor/room/bathroom expectations?

Understand that Grand Pineapple has limited inclusions and is a budget all inclusive, so be sure that the expectations meet the reality. I enjoyed staying at Grand Pineapple twice but totally understood that it was a very different stay than my experience at Sandals. I just want your friends to be happy and realistic about their experience. Buffet meals, out of date decor, basic rooms, second hand furniture and lounge chairs, limited watersports activities, no group activities, basic/well bar brands, draft beer. That said, staff are amazing, I always feel safe, and the location on the beach really can't be beat! I would try to stay in the cottage rooms, not the manor rooms, and for a little extra, stay on the beach side, although the garden side is nice, recognize that you have to cross the road and that can be exhausting for some guests. I would stay at Grand Pineapple again if I could purchase a room-only, not all inclusive, stay.

I agree. But we have paid less for the GP all inclusive than we have paid for a room only at other resorts. Just depends on what you are looking for.

Jamerican71, also check our Beaches for the kids activities. There is no activities for children at GO

that's true, Greg. I totally agree about the price point.

I am curious what the all-inclusive expectation is becuase I have stayed at Grand Pineapple, only to eat the breakfast and an occasional dinner, but if the guests are expecting a full all-inclusive experience, I'm curious of the expectations.

I have a friend who really likes the Merrills hotels, with three stays there.
